  • I was fine ignoring the first one as mistakes happen but I woke up to the same email a second time. All my other paypal purchases work fine so there shouldn't be any issues. I don't normally preorder so I don't even know why I did in this case. I don't think there's any real benefit to doing so is there? I'm thinking of…
  • It's Kawaii Stacie's education mod.
  • All I get are cookies - all day long it feels like! I would so welcome the chicken! Actually, I no longer do the dorms. Too annoying and I couldn't stand making them leave 3 hours early just to maybe make it to their class on time. Housing off campus is the only thing I'll do anymore - no more failing classes because they…
  • I go back and forth on whether a club is best or the add to group function. I think for household, add to group might be best. I do like the club feature to bring in family that have moved out. That's handy to get them all back together easily. I mostly ignore club points. Although I think some club options help gain…
  • Mine sometimes do nothing but eat if I have that as one of the activities. I finally had to get rid of it because they'd just keep going back for a new plate. And my homework club (just the kids in my household, thought it would be easier to get them to do instead of directing all 4 constantly), despite it being the only…
  • Awesome, thanks for the link to the forum post. Maybe they just don't update their website as much anymore as that shows old patches. I tried to search the forums but I think I did it wrong. Nothing except stuff from 2017 came up...I don't know. Sometimes I don't "internet" very good. lol
  • Do the Triplis mods still work? I noticed this modder doesn't seem to have been active in some time and the patches that are mentioned are from about a year ago. Which is unfortunate, I'm very intrigued by some of them!
  • Yep, same. lol I had 2 kids in one of my families and I just wanted them to have one more late in life oopsy baby. They had triplets. No fertility trait or lot traits or anything like that. I said some choice words when that box kept popping up. LOL

  • Sure they do! :) I do it while standing in line if it’s taking awhile. I have a project bag looped around my arm or in a belt buckle and have the yarn in the bag. I wouldn’t do complicated lace or large pieces standing up, but a washcloth or socks is the perfect thing to knit while standing. I’ve even knitted while taking…
  • I like using some challenges to start a new game but then I don't continue to follow them really. It's just a loose guideline. Like the 100 baby challenge for one. It is NOT fun to me to have baby after baby after baby. So I made it a longer goal of hitting 100 babies but doing it at a more reasonable pace. Playing the…
  • My sims have generally just eloped in their living room. But I really like being able to get nice photos to hang in their homes so I've started having weddings at a venue just for that purpose. I'd love to do more with these events but the game is too frustrating generally to bother with it much. I would LOVE a wedding…
  • @elanorbreton Thank you - yeah, right clicking doesn't bring up any kind of option like that. That's too bad.
  • @elanorbreton How did you get the neighborhood tabs listed like that (the black\gray tabs)? I know how to add sections and pages to a tab but can’t figure out how to get a list quite like yours. So for example, I could create how you have your Willow Creek set up, but I can't figure out how to have any other neighborhoods…
  • Just to update the thread, it was the sync last names in MCCC mod that was causing my issue. I turned that off and all appears to be well!
  • Once they're at daycare, I believe you then have to do the "bring here" option from their photo panel. The game won't automatically let you travel with them but it will bring them to you once you are at the venue. At least, I believe that's how I've done it in the past.
  • Thank you! Somehow I missed your reply earlier. I've got that now disabled so I'm hoping the names stop changing. I liked that it changed the last names for the sims themselves but I don't want my household names touched so I'll have to occasionally go through and just manually update last names. Thank you both for your…
  • Thank you!! I'm hoping this fixes it for me as well.
  • I thought I had turned that off (before I had a setting that would change it to the male last name which I turned off) but I just went in and looked through it all again and I still had sync last names enabled. I'm hoping that's the culprit. Are there any other places I would need to change?
  • Is there anything in this mod that would cause the household names to change? It's usually the family last name but I've changed a few of mine in the Manage Household screen to be more descriptive (I have many households who have same last name). It never stays - after an hour or so of playing, the name I edited it to…
  • I haven't gotten to play much yet. But I did go in and change mccc settings to stop changing last names so I'm hopeful that's the culprit.
  • On similar line of thought to the sitting on the floor suggestion above, I wish there was a mod that had sims sit on the floor when teaching blocks, etc to toddlers. Who stands over a toddler to teach them anyway? Drives me crazy.
  • Oh I have seen that, too! I have 4 or 5 that right now that are blank. Started when I got university I think. Thanks guys - I'll test more this weekend! But I'm guessing it's one of my mods, prob mccc.
  • @DeKay Great to know! Thanks - now at least I know it's not me doing something wrong. lol
  • @Admiral8Q Yes, that's exactly how I'm trying to do it. It just won't stay for some reason. Actually, I'm suddenly wondering if MCCC may have something to do with this. It just dawned on me, maybe when it cycles through doing it's various tasks in the background, it could be changing that as well? I will do a test this…
  • Thanks for your reply! I don't want to change their first or last names, though. I was hoping that I could change their overall household name itself to be different than just their last name. So when you go into the manage households screen, and click on the family you want, the name in the box at the top is what I want…
  • Thanks! I will let you know if it continues.
  • Thank you, I appreciate you trying to figure it out! If it helps, sometimes parents are no longer listed at all and others, if I have one of the parents who have adopted a child (like a step child) but the other parent is via birth, the adopted parent name shows up in both places with the birth parent no longer listed. At…
  • @ThePlumtree I have this issue with the parents not staying saved in one of my trees that I just noticed today (I haven't played in a few months). The version at the bottom is "Version 391e3d4". Any insights why this might still be occurring?
  • I just want the babies to be able to be out in the family more. Like they could be placed on a special play mat while everyone is watching tv or such. I don't mind them having to be tied to an object, but give them more objects they could be put on so they aren't hidden in a bed room for days. Let children or even toddlers…
